AB et Eurofeuille

The Organic Farming (AB) and Organic Farming Europe certifications refer to all the products that are from French (for the AB certification) and European (for the Organic farming Europe label) organic agriculture. The AB label was established first in 1985, while the European organic label was introduced in 2009. Since the implementation of the European label, the AB label’s criteria have been aligned with the European model to simplify regulations and provide better guidance to consumers.

Both the AB and Euroleaf certifications ensure that at least 95% of the product’s components come from organic farming that complies with European Union regulations. They guarantee that the production methods are environmentally friendly, promote biodiversity and animal welfare, and prohibit the use of synthetic chemicals and GMOs (with accidental traces of GMOs tolerated up to 0.9%). Additionally, these certifications certify that the product comes directly from the producing farmer and is packaged in a sealed package.
